(Intro)
Yeah...
Rezin...
Productions....
No work. No luck. No mercy.
When your back's against the wall, survival writes the rules.
This ain't about being good... it's about making it to tomorrow.
(Hook 1 | Pop Melody)
I'm in survival mode, got my back to the wall,
Bills keep stackin', but I still stand tall.
No sleep, no peace, every day's a damn war,
Kick another door if another one gets closed.
Survival mode... survival mode...
If I gotta get it dirty, I'ma get it on my own.
(Verse 1 | Fast Rap)
Wake up broke, ain't a damn thing changed,
Child support hit, now my whole check drained.
Boss ain't callin', got me stuck in a drought,
Landlord knockin', "Motherfucker, pay now!"
Fridge look naked, stomach eatin' itself,
Everybody preachin' morals sittin' comfy with wealth.
Funny how they judge when they never skipped meals,
Never had collectors sendin' threats in the mail.
Pawn my tools, flip whatever I can,
Every hustle got a purpose when you're feedin' your fam.
I ain't proud of every move that I make in the dark,
But pride don't fill plates or restart a cold heart.
When survival takes over, every line starts to fade,
Ain't nobody handin' shit, so I build what I take.
You can hate from your couch while you're sippin' your drink,
I'm too busy stayin' alive to give a fuck what you think.
(Hook 2 | Pop Melody)
I'm in survival mode, got my back to the wall,
Everybody disappears when you answer the call.
No angels comin' down, no miracle in sight,
So I fight like hell every damn night.
Survival mode... survival mode...
Survival mode... survival mode...
The world don't care, so I learned not to fold.
(Verse 2 | Fast Rap)
Life threw fists, now I'm swingin' back twice,
Every scar on my body got a hell of a price.
Empty pockets make a dangerous mind,
When your babies need food, you stop wastin' time.
Every "legal" opportunity vanished too fast,
So I carved my own lane while they laughed as I passed.
Call me what you want, I ain't askin' for grace,
Only thing I ever begged was another damn day.
Pressure made diamonds, pressure made beasts,
Pressure turned a quiet man into streets with no leash.
I learned real quick nobody's comin' to save me,
Only these two hands and the heart God gave me.
Every loss became fuel, every bruise became drive,
I refuse to let this world decide if I survive.
If I gotta bleed, then I'm bleedin' with pride,
Still standin' ten toes while the weak run and hide.
(Hook 3 | Pop Melody)
I'm in survival mode, ain't no savior around,
Still standin' strong while the whole world's burnin' down.
Every dollar earned is another battle won,
I ain't done fightin' till my last breath comes.
Survival mode... survival mode...
You can judge my path, but you'll never wear my shoes.
(Outro)
Remember this...
The hungry don't dream the same as the full.
When survival takes the wheel, morals become a luxury.
I didn't choose this war...
But I'll be damned if I lose it.
Survival mode... survival mode...
Survival mode... survival mode...
Rezin
